It's Photo Week at Just Us Girls

Lisa is our Host over at Just Us Girls this week
and has chosen this gorgeous photo below
for us to be inspired by...

What caught my eye?
The first thing was the wallpaper in the background
so my first job was to find an embossing folder
and ink it up - Cuttlebug Stylized Flower
with SU Yo Yo Yellow
I couldn't help but then notice the flowers
in such a pretty pink colour.
My Spellbinder Romantic Rectangles
was used for the backing for the focal point.
This was popped and inked with
Memento Angel Pink
Got an old GKD stamp set out
Vogue Vases - maybe one of the first ones
of Gina's I bought.
I inked the leaves in Memento Olive Grove
fussy cut the flowers twice once with
plain pink paper and the second with scrap DP
The big vase was popped and inked with sticky
embossing powder and I then added
Twinklets Diamond Dust which just
looks like crystal to me.
Added some ribbon and a strip
of mulberry paper to the back and a small strip
of paper to use as a shelf
finishing with pearls for the floral centres
and rhinestones in the background.

Another beautiful card Ina, love how you inked up the embossing folder. Totally enjoyed meeting you through the month of May and getting to see a bit of what a design team does. All your different styles its great to see the interpretations.

Great take on the photo. Love how you have used the embossing folder to do the background, very creative. And I have forgotten about that stamp set, glad you reprized it! I really like this card, it's just beautiful!!

About Me

I am now retired and get to spend my time in the garden and retreating to my play station to craft to my hearts content. I love making cards and I like a variety of styles from CAS to Mixed Media and anything that looks like fun. Being involved on various Design Teams has given me the chance to try new ideas and taken me out of my comfort zone at times. The friends you gain along the way are so valued.
